The problem was because we were getting too many hits to the rss feed for the Agora. The rss.php script dynamically builds the feed every time it's requested, which hammers the database. I'm going to work on a method where it will save the feed every 5 minutes or so, and just hand that static file off quickly to anybody who requests it. Unfortunately, this will require some development on my part, and the RSS feature will have to be down until further notice.

Thanks,

Andrew
